The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center in Thousand Oaks, CA (805-557-9930) announces updates to its Inspire Therapy service, an alternative treatment for patients with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who struggle with traditional CPAP devices.
—
The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center’s Inspire Therapy presents a viable alternative for those seeking relief from OSA without the discomfort of a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) mask. Besides skin irritation, individuals who use a CPAP device may have difficulty adjusting to wearing the device throughout the night, may experience claustrophobia, and may have dryness in the mouth, throat, or nose due to the device’s continuous airflow.

Unlike CPAP therapy, Inspire Therapy employs a more compact, implanted device to monitor patients’ breathing patterns and deliver mild stimulation to the airway muscles. This stimulation helps keep the airway open during sleep, reducing sleep apnea events and improving patients’ sleep quality.
The device is easy to use, as patients can control the device with a handheld remote, allowing them to turn it on before bed and off upon waking. Remote control eliminates the need for unwieldy equipment and makes it easier for patients to stick to their treatment plans.
Inspire Therapy is FDA-approved and has been clinically proven to significantly reduce the frequency of sleep apnea events. By stimulating the hypoglossal nerve, which controls tongue movement and airway muscles, the system helps maintain an open airway throughout the night, so patients get more restful, uninterrupted sleep.
Prospective patients interested in Inspire Therapy can discuss their options via the center’s American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) SleepTM telemedicine services, which provide secure, web-based consultations. This state-of-the-art system broadens patients’ access to specialized sleep medicine experts, eliminates the need for in-person visits, and reduces scheduling and commuting challenges.
Founded by Dr. Ronald A. Popper in 1984, The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center is the first non-hospital, non-university-based sleep center fully accredited by the AASM. Dr. Popper is certified in Sleep Disorders Medicine by both the American Board of Sleep Medicine and the American Board of Internal Medicine - Subspecialty of Sleep Medicine.
“Dr. Popper and his entire staff are extremely knowledgeable and experienced in their field,” one satisfied patient shared. “They have run tests, asked good questions, remained patient with me, and ultimately diagnosed and successfully treated a lifelong issue. My quality of life is remarkably improved.”
